About Phil Wheat

Formerly "Developing SharePoint", I'm reworking my blog to find a way to cover the increasing number of topics that I end up being asked about. My core interest remains in Knowledge Management, but the more knowledge we gather and put in an actionable form, the more I get called on to comment on DOING something with that knowledge. Thus my quest to redefine the blog and pull a common thread through the topics.

I feel like Stanley S. (I can’t spell) on UHF screaming “Free toy inside! Free toy inside!” but Rob Vettor passed on the info and I had to post it. If you’re interested in MVC and doing ASP.Net, you can find a great end-to-end tutorial on using...

Amazon has a free sampler of the Music you'll hear at SxSWm - you can grab it here and put it on your Zune for that flight down. (Well I guess you could put it on another MP3 player as well... Like your Kindle or something.)

If you’re working with Silverlight or have been thinking about it and are in Austin next Monday, .Net Dojo is going to be in town talking about how to take advantage of Silverlight in your projects. Todd Anglin will be speaking (a key presenter...

So in that spirit, I’m going to be posting events and activities as they come on my radar. I’ve got some more details for both PhizzPop and Austin BarCamp, but I just got the word on this, and since my local Gamers always like to hear about where...

Chris has convinced me that Delicious is useful – not just for me keeping track of my own bookmarks but to get information out without re-posting or having things get stale. For that end, I’ve re-discovered my account and have put up a tag cloud...

I’m behind on some of my event posts, but I was asked enough about when ArcReady is coming back around that I thought I need to drop it in pronto! This ArcReady tour is starting in St Louis (Clint gets to be the point guy) but it’s coming to Austin...
